The year in numbers
The season packed 8 races across 7 countries, with 4 different winners over 1957: Juan Fangio (4), Stirling Moss (2), Sam Hanks (1), Tony Brooks (1). Juan Fangio won more than anyone, 4 of the 8 races. The title went to Juan Fangio (Argentina), driving for Maserati, the fifth of the driver's career. On the raw sums of the table, Juan Fangio closed the year on 46 points, 21 more than Stirling Moss. A note for anyone checking official records: until 1990 the rules dropped each driver's worst results, so the raw sums in the table can differ from the official 1957 scores.
